[Q] Why does it do this?

Every ICS ROM that I have flashed on my phone has done this. I never hear anyone discussing this and I can't be the only one. Why and is there a fix?

I get it in the app drawer as well.

Have you done a full wipe and is hardware acceleration enabled?

Not So Strange...
Well,it backs to several things:
Did You Fully wipe?
What's device current Recovery?
What was your previous Firmware?
Did the Roms you use,support GPU rendering ?
How is your device like with official firmware?
And several other things...

Yes, I always do a full wipe when flashing roms.
5.0.2.0
It does it eventually, regardless of the previous firmware.
I believe so, all roms that I flash come from here.
I just flashed a root access version of the IMM76D ROM and it happened on that one.
It only happens every so often, and a reboot is in order to correct it.
Thanks guys.

Now,It's Better...

Ok,first try to flash latest official firmware which I think is:
Ics 4.0.4
Baseband Version: D720SPRKH1
Build Number:IMM26
and here is a how to:
http://www.techzek.com/how-to-update-sprint-nexus-s-4g-on-android-4-0-4-ics-firmware/
Afterward flash following recovery:
http://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.0.2-crespo.img
Then try to flash:
http://bigota.d.miui.com/2.3.30/miui_NS_2.3.30_c1e078377e_4.0.zip
or
a cyanogenmod 9 and report back please...

^ Is that the correct firmware to flash for the 4G nexus s?

That looks like a launcher problem to me. Are you using an aftermarket launcher or are you restoring it from a previous install?

Stock launcher, I've never used a different launcher other than stock on all my ICS ROMs.

I Edit the firmware,check and flash it.

Update, my phone did it again and I thought I would check the launcher. I did a "force stop" on the launcher and that resolved it. I have always used the stock ics launcher what would cause the launcher to behave this way?

See my signature for proper FULL wipe. Something tells me you're not wiping system.

I'm having the same problem with one of 2 Nexus S 4G's I flashed with IMM76D. I did a full proper wipe on both of them, but one seems to corrupt the text like in the picture. It happens after it's been running a while and a reboot fixes it temporarily.I wiped it fully again and reloaded the ROM and its still doing it.
Next thing to try is re downloading the ROM. Maybe a corrupt download? Any ideas?

I too have done a full proper wipe with that same rom and still have the issue from time to time. Next time you get it try to fore stop the stock launcher. That fixes it for me, until it happens again. But for me its something with the stock launcher.

No OS and RUU won't work, help?

I gave my HTC One S to my dad after getting an S4 for my birthday. I had a rooted Stock OS on it (updated to 4.3 i think it was, and he requested I flashed Cyanogenmod 10 for him. He's been enjoying it, but today he decided to revert to the stock OS which is absolutely fine, but he decided he would do it himself. He wiped everything through recovery (including the SD card which got rid of all backups I had) and he couldn't get it working so he gave it back to me to fix. I decided "no problem i'll run an RUU and see how that works" but I can only find an older RUU which used to work for when i messed it up when I owned it, it couldn't run because it was an older version im guessing. So I found one for my latest version I have (RUU_Ville_U_JB_45_S_TMOUS_3.14.531.11_Radio_1.13.50.05.31_10.30.50.08L_release_309489_signed_ICS_2.exe) and I get this error:

Sounds like a corrupt download to me, try to download again.

I believe once you have run this, go to settings and do update check, install the small update to improve battery performance (and wifi I think).

Thank you so much but no, unfortunately its the same deal.

You'll need to flash stock recovery (you can find it over at Modaco) and relock your phone before running an RUU file.

[Q] KitKat update OTA freezes

Hey,
I just bought the Moto G, and tried triggering the OTA update almost directly. The first time it said it will download the update & install afterwards. I haven't seen any notifications since, and if I try to trigger it again it says it is already downloading the update.. Has been like that all day.
I have restarted the phone, killed the update processes, restarted wifi, etc etc.. When wifi is out, it mentions it will continue downloading the update when wifi is back on, and that message indicates the download is still at 0%..
Any thoughts?
Thanks!!

I have the same problem, it's been saying that it's already downloading the update for a few hours now.
I've tried soft and hard resetting the phone but the same results.

could it be an issue at server-side then?

Got a moto g today, with the same problem, if i turn off and on the wifi it shows a notification to turn on the wifi and the bar stays at 0%, probably a server side problem.

If i reboot the phone then the 0% notification disappears.
Seeing as we're all having the same problem i guess you're right, it's probably server problems and we'll just have to be patient.
Hopefully when i wake up tomorrow it will have downloaded!

damn, tried installing the motorola manager for windows & plugged in my droid, no luck either.. it also says it's already installing an update.
we have to be patient then..

Sorry i forgot to mention that I'd tried that as well and it hasn't worked!

I have the same problem with OTA update, but before couple of days i put manually kit-kat update for German device (i didnt sure if my device is German Moto G, i bought it from amazon.de). I just put Kitkat file on my root folder, then i went to check for updates and then phone automatically installed Kitkat (no-rooting or something like that) and after that my phone offer me a update to kit-kat even i have a kit-kat, but i think is because i place it manually. Now it said that update is downloading and i will be notified, update is downloading more than 5 hours and still nothing.
Do anyone know why this is a problem???
Sorry for my English!

[Q] Paranoid Android OTA Problem

I installed the OTA update for the Android Paranoid ROM. When checking for updates, it mentioned something about not being able to check GApps update or something like that. I then downloaded the update and installed it through the OTA app. The phone rebooted and went into recovery mode, installed, and then shut down, it did not reboot. Now when I try to boot it, all I get is the Samsung letters, and then the phone shuts down again. I installed this rom on July 5th, and had installed an OTA update about a week ago.
What did I do wrong? What do I need to do to get it to boot and work again?
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

You're going to have to factory reset it. Something broke in this update, as far as I can tell. The July 8th one is the one you should stay on until somebody from PA takes a look at why it's happening on the Skyrocket. Post about this in the Paranoid Android thread in the Android Development
forum for the device. I'm trying to throw together a bug report, but that'll take a couple hours until I get back to a computer.

Thanks for the help...I ended up doing the factory reset and installing the first rom I used back on July 5th along with the gapps from back then. Then I installed the July 8th update and haven't installed the latest update. I'm going to stay with this version for now.

Hey! So update on this matter. There's been a new OTA update pushed out (pa_skyrocket-4.44-20140722.zip). That update works over OTA, so feel free to update to that version of Paranoid Android. Checked and running

Please help me! Freshly softbricked SGS7, SM-G930W8, No OS Installed

I have tried goddamn near everything and lurked everywhere.
This is just me trying to fix a huge mistake. I got this phone yesterday, everything was fine. I just wanted to install a custom recovery so I could back up the phone.
I flashed TWRP with Odin, I may have done it wrong or something... But I'm pretty sure I followed some directions. Odin did it in a snap, my device rebooted into TWRP... but then, I just barely noticed the "No OS installed!" message.
I have attempted, in no particular order:
- Using Kies 3 to initialize my device. It will download to 100% and then stick on 0% going to install the OS. Tells me the device is not supported.
- I then tried SmartSwitch because someone told me that's what you need for Android 4.3+. Same exact thing.
- Tried flashing my stock firmware, both 6.0.1 that it came with and the 7.0 that was available before it was bricked, with Odin 13.2 (I also tried others)
What's interesting here is when I add in the AP, BL, CP and HOME_CSC and press start, I get Odin's log to fail just after cm.bin - every time.
Here is a screenshot:

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
At that point, I am no longer able to re-attempt until I restart and re-enter DL mode, and a black-backgrounded red text appears on the Download Mode screen, that says:
SW REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE: 2, BINARY: 1
My device is the Canadian version, in the XAC region.
I have downloaded and attempted flashing firmwares G930W8VLU2BQB6_G930W8OYA2BQB6_XAC and G930W8VLU1APG1_G930W8OYA1APG1_XAC.
Both give the exact same errors and so I don't think the firmwares I got are the issue. I just have no idea what it could be, since the only problem with my phone is there's no OS installed.
Actually, I do have a problem with TWRP, as well.
TWRP is unable to do much. It cannot mount /data (among others), and those folders are all still there as I can adb push files to the device, and I attempted pushing the actual firmware to the /data folder and I could see the progress by pressing Install in TWRP and then looking in the /data folder... but that was the only file that told me "No space left on device" once it 100% completed, when there's obviously ~30GB.
The first error TWRP gives is that it cannot find the crypto footer.
Am I screwed here? Is this a harder softbrick? What am I missing? Please reply quickly, working by tomorrow would be very ideal.
Thanks in advance!

The last time I tried to flash stock - I got errors in Odin. Disconnected phone, restarted download mode and tried again. Don't know why but it took four tries before flashing complete - good luck

I tried many more than four times. Should I be using CSC rather than HOME_CSC, just to wipe everything and maybe that'll work?
You say you got 'errors' in Odin, but it's always different for a different cause. You didn't get an error before cm.bin, did you?
EDIT: Attempting CSC rather than HOME_CSC for both v7 and v6 firmwares.
UPDATE: Ugh... I guess it's not the same every time. Using CSC with the Marshmallow md5s, I got Odin to err earlier this time, before even getting to cm.bin!:
UPDATE2: I have just tried flashing Nougat with Odin, using CSC instead of HOME_CSC, and IT'S WORKING??? WTF. Got past recovery, now going through system... Perhaps I posted too soon? Sorry for wasting anyone's time. I will update this thread if it doesn't work.
I'd say this thread isn't worth deletion because I think somebody could come by, take this information and help themselves with it.

I had similar issue - error would be different with every attempt until finally it just flashed and passed. Glad you got it working .

Yeah, that's the thing though... With this one, I got the same error no matter how many times I tried one specific way.
I suppose just never attempted the 7.0 firmware with CSC instead of HOME_CSC. Thanks anyway
